Know exactly what you mean - its like the fall happens in slow motion.
I head-butted the bathroom wall the other day.

Quoting Nigel Harland <[log in to unmask]>:

> Hi, I have had PD since 1989, am now aged 53 and in recent months have been
> experiencing loss of balance resulting in me falling flat on my face causing
> damage not only to my knees and hands, but also to any household items which
> are in my way when I fall. This usually happens between doses of medication,
> and seems to have got worse since I started on Rotigotine patches. The
> frustrating thing about this is that I can tell when I am about to fall, but
> I can't stop myself, it is almost as if there is a little voice in my head
> saying " Fall, fall" and however hard I try to stop it, down I go.
> Does anyone else have a similar experience, and perhaps any advice on how to
> stop it from happening.
